    The reason for the blackout

    The PMS(Power Management System) controls and monitors power plant in ship. The powewr system is 440V, 3phase, 3 4440V generators and neutral flaoting earthing system. During earth fault from washing machine, the blackout occurs. PMS supplier said that blackout is reasonable action as sound...

    Earthing on the Motor Frame(IEC 60034-1)

    I have read IEC 60034-1 in conjuction with motor earthing. It tells me to be earthed from motor frame in addition to earth tap on the terminal box for motor more than 100kW. If the bonding is achieved between motor frame and terminal box, the motor frame is still required ? Can you tell me...

    Overheating problem in starter

    I have problem with overheating in motor stater and the surface of MCCB, magnetic contactor, and cable is very hot. The insulation tube at the terminal lug is almost melted. The rating of cable, magentic contator, and MCCB are correctly selected. I took out the components to bring shop and...

    Acceptable Leakage current value at dielectric Withstand test

    6/10kV cables are installed for the power network at 6.6kW. After completing cable installation, Dielectric high Voltage Withstand Test is to be applied to cables with meggering. Test gives us to confirm the insulation of cable by recording leakage current during test. the detected leakage...

    Earth Monitoring Check On IT System(Neural Non-ground)

    I'm involved with commissioning on 690V 3phase, IT(Unearthed system). The system has earth monitoring system, supplied by Bender. The monitoring system consists of BENDER IRDH575 monitoring insulation resistance and EDS470-12 evaluating/locating insulation. Anybody tell me how earth is simulated...

    Short circuit current on the switchboard

    I received short circuit calculation on the switchboard however, the short circuit level needs to be lowered in order to select Circuit Breaker with less fault current in aspect of cost. I therefore suggest to adjust constants values such as subtransient reactance on the four generators. If...

    Insuation Resistance Problem on Generator Stator

    I measured insulation resistance by Megger and it reads 5 MOhm. P.I is approximately 1.0. I believe that this value indicates poor insulation. I assume that humidities are ingressed into generator due to long term storage. I will heat it up. If it is not humidity problem, I'd likw to know any...

    Field failure Of Generator

    I set the following figures for field protection(40) Alarm angle : 15 degree (Alarm) Xa1 : 3 Ohm Xb1 : 44.8 Ohm Time Dealy : 7 s (Trip) Xa2 : 2 Ohm Xb2 : 16.8Ohm Time Delay : 0s In these settings, I have tripping of ACB for Generator due to field failure. I triy to troubleshooting for it. Can...

    EEx nA T3 with regard to Thermo sensor

    I have read Ex Certificate showing LCIE 00 ATEX 6032. There is a descrition of 'the motor will be equipped with internal thermo sensors for category 2D to protect the insulation class of motor'. The motor is Ex nA, T3 and insulation class is 'F'. Somesone says that motor starter should implement...

    Different CT Ratio for Generator Differential Protection

    Today I started up generator but ACB for generator has been tripped due to Differential Ocurrence. The reason is that CT's ratio are different from each other, which means that CT from Generator is 1250/5A and CT from Switchboard is 1250/1A. The protection relay is Alstom P343. I am not sure if...

    Loss of exciation(40) and Voltage Restrained Overcurrent for Generator

    I'd like set protection setting for generator protection relay but I'm not familiar with setting for Loss of exciation and voltage restrained overcurrent. What information is required to be obtained for setting and how can I calculate to set both protections ?
